 SUNDAY:  Church was good.  Glenda, Dee, Andrea and I had lunch together at THE OLIVE LEAF.  I had suggested APPLEBEE'S but Dee said she thought it would be crowded and loud due to all of the televisions and the BILLS game.  I had a burger and fries.  I spent the rest of the day at home, napping, resting, watching TV and working on my homework for Tuesdays Life Group.  I uploaded pictures from yesterday's trip to "the tunnels".  Also, I organized a box of gift bags, Christmas cards, tags, bows, etc.  Basically, it just looks less disorganized and I have a better idea of what is in the box.   MONDAY the 13th:  I met up with Cindi at the Taylor Theatre at the Kenan Center.  A WW2 and POW camp survivor spoke.  He was born in 1924 and enlisted when he was 18 and he was in the Army Air Corps.  His talk was very interesting.  There were empty seats in the theatre but there were a lot of people there, including a c...

 SUNDAY the Fifth:  After church, Marlene, Glenda, Louise and I went to the Davison Road Inn for their brunch buffet.  It is not all that great, and they have eliminated a couple of items since the last time I was there.  When I got home, I called Elizabeth and asked her if she wanted to come over to my house for supper.  She did not sound at all enthused, so I told her that it is fine if she does not feel up to it. I told her I will freeze a portion of COWBOY BEAN SOUP to give to her later and that she and I will get together soon.  I vacuumed the kitchen, dining area and living room floors since they needed it after me sorting through all of my Christmas decorations yesterday.  I got together my first quarter order of OTC items, after calling UNIVERA to find out how much my monthly benefit is this year.  I called Cassandra in the evening and we talked for close to a half an hour.  Karen called to let me know that she WILL be joining us at t...

WEEK OF Sunday December 29th 2024 through Saturday January 4th, 2025 NEW CORNBREAD RECIPE

 SUNDAY the 29th:  I called Jan to ask her if she needed a ride to church, but she has not been sleeping well due to the cast on her arm and had a bad headache so she decided to stay home from church today.  Church was very good this morning.  Pastor Craig and his wife Jenny led the sermon (if you could call it that) together.  The topic was LOVE, from 1st Corinthians 13.  Their presentation was very good.  I picked up a BIBLE IN A YEAR list before leaving church.  Betty and Marlene were not in church this morning.  Glenda wanted to go home to watch "the game", so I didn't have anyone to go out for lunch with.  Which is probably a good thing since I have a LOT of leftovers in my refrigerator.  When I got home, I prepared myself lunch and watched a couple of episodes of 24 and started my homework for when we return to LIFE GROUP on January 7th.   MONDAY the 30th.  Jan was not free to go to the Y to walk the track so I ...

Week of December 22 through December December 28, 2024 Recipe for GIFT OF THE MAGI BREAD

 SUNDAY:  I woke up very early this morning, around five a.m. and could not get back to sleep.. Church was very good this morning but I struggled to stay awake. After it was over, Glenda and I went to LaPorts for lunch.  Andrea met us there, after she dropped her twin granddaughters off at home.  I ordered the large turkey dinner, but I think they gave me the small one instead, but I was charged or the large one.  I don't think I will order it again.  I have had it many times and usually bring home enough slices of turkey for one, maybe two turkey  sandwiches.  Not this time.  I spent the rest of the day at home.  I slept on the couch for an hour or so, then decided to do a load of laundry.  I looked for movies with Hilary Swank on HULU, it seems they only offer a couple of them.  I watched THE GOOD MOTHER.  I saw an interesting recipe on facebook so am saving it here.  I might make it for Christmas day.   G...
